the most beautiful and famous pop songs of the 40 years

Pepper by Butthole Surfers​


It was a hit in 1996 and I think it's legit beautiful. From that album Electriclarryland I like Cough Syrup even more: beautiful jangle pop with an awesome strings outro but it wasn't popular.

This video is a little shorter than the album version but the video is really funny.

 
Don't know if it's beautiful but its pop, the piano line says so.

Read My Mind The Killers (Pet Shop Boys Stars Are Blazing Mix)​

 
Glad to see Voices Carry made the team! Fabulous song and a great arrangement (if a bit "of its time").

Not sure if this is famous enough for all y'all, but Sinead Lohan's No Mermaid is a contender, I would opine.


Howzabout Patty Griffin's One Big Love? It certainly got "adult contemporary" airplay in the Boston area.


I also very much like Emmylou Harris' cover of One Big Love from her fabulous but very bleak album Red Dirt Girl.


Not much on Madonna, but I really do like Crazy for You. The internet says 1985, so in scope. ;)


Similarly, I think that Cindy Lauper's Time After Time is exceptional. Aww, shoot. 1983, sez the internet. :(
